Personally, I still think it's a scam. Anybody remember MEG? Remember how forum pressure instigated an earlier-than-planned character reveal? I'd bet real money that this is an attempt at getting BioWare to unclench their lips a little.

I'm pretty sure they'll make him bisexual if he's a companion in DA3, that way everyone can have a chance with him lol.
There's nothing to say that it isn't legit concept art. That doesn't mean that the rest isn't utter horse hockey.LolaLei wrote...

Admittedly the concept art did look convincing. Mainly I'm just investigating to see what I can dig up and maybe work out if it is fake.

Oh, I know logically he'd be most likely straight, but don't forget in DA2 they made everyone bi (except Seb, but you can't really romance him properly.) I can see them making him bisexual to prevent any uproar.

Not trying to crush anyone's hope, but I highly doubt he will be bi. He IS a chantry guy after all. Like Sebastian and Alistair, I think he is one of those characters with a background too strong to be that open minded. Sure, he liked a mage even when he was a templar, but...I just can't imagine it. It doesn't fit his chantry/templar image.

People keep using that argument. My answer is still the same.brushyourteeth wrote...
IF we're something like an Inquisitor in the next game, there's no reason to think it would force us to be pro-Chantry. It sounded from the description that based on a big attack on the Chantry (the events of Dawn of the Seeker, maybe?) and the way the templar/mage war has been happening, a group of people got together and said "some kind of power player is manipulating this situation. There's much more than mages and templars at play here." and decided to investigate it.
Thus, the Inquisition.
And even if the Inquisition were affiliated with the Chantry at all, it would still be prudent for anyone who cared even a little bit about how the mage situation worked out to ally themselves temporarily and snoop around for an unconventional way of ending the war. Or for an anti-Chantry but highly skilled person to earn their freedom/save their friend/escape danger themselves. Kind of like how your Warden didn't have to be excited about becoming one in the first place. There are a lot of possibilities.

Do not want. Full stop.
It doesn't matter how much sugar you pour over a turd cupcake, it won't be appetizing.
Don't get me wrong! I've got nothing against Chantry companions (obviously), and nothing against specific templars (obviously). But I don't want to play one, and I don't want to have to buy into a lame reasons or explanations for railroading.
Sorry. This is my one absolutely inflexible "no compromise" issue. Anything else is fair game.

That's the deciding factor.
Fixed religious affiliation = no sale
If it's legit, then I'm in for a disappointment and I will not be buying the next game. Another loyal BioWare fan alienated. No one will care, I know, but it's still sad.
If it isn't legit, I'll be pre-ordering, like always.

Not yet, but if it's any help, I'm pretty sure I've heard David Gaider say the plural for "from Thedas" is Thedan. Not 100% positive, but somewhere in my brain it seems like I've logged that away from something he said once.
Honestly, the Circle probably sells some kind of magical lyrium and elfroot mouthwash or something.
Temporarily cooperate with? Sure. Lots of reasons for that, ranging from extortion to temporary insanity. Be a card-carrying member of? Absolutely not.brushyourteeth wrote...

I just don't get this. You wouldn't even just temporarily cooperate with religious people in order to save the world?
That's insanity. I just will never understand that.
